Between corolla 2000/2001 model and camry tiny light 2000/2001 model Which is more economical, in terms of fuel consumption and cheap parts? Can corolla run far distance, e.g. East to Lagos.? I will appreciate honest experienced response! Thanks |

Well when it comes to fuel economy n parts Corolla it’s however with the recent surge in prices of vehicles particularly Toyota Spare parts are getting costlier |

For fuel economy and cheap parts na honda civic win am oh, but for more ruggedness corolla part are expensive though due to demand, camry if you prefer a larger ride |

Kokomo:well Said |

For me Corolla is clearly the most economical between the 2 rides. Camry is a more luxurious ride but comes with its wahala of timing belt that can cut 2 times in a year. Low hanging exhaust. |

Peppermintflav:Yea,I keep seeing that exhaust pipe too down.many are touching the ground, won't it make it to break easily? |

Kokomo:Once I mention Honda,the way people quickly say a big NO. I began to fear. They always mention suspension and costly to fix. Is the Honda Civic really Good? On timing belt, they said if I get Belgium,it lasts more than a year and Belgium is 10k . For a beginner, which do u clearly recommend |

My Honda CRV is 5years old I'm yet to change timing belt. I know corolla owners that have driven their cars for over 7 years without changing timing belt, but I'm yet to see a Camry owner (particularly that year u mentioned) that doesn't have a spare timing belt in his boot because that thing dey cut like rubber band. ![]() |

Peppermintflav:I didn't change mine(Camry 2000) in 8 years of use |
| Re: Corrola Or Camry, Help Advice! by Dozieson(m): 11:01am On Jul 24, 2021 |
Dozieson:The most frequent thing i do is change engine oil. I bought it tokunbo and can tell you it didn't give me any particular issue before selling |
| Re: Corrola Or Camry, Help Advice! by Peppermintflav: 12:11pm On Jul 24, 2021 |
Well if op is buying toks I guess he has nothing to worry about. But if na naija used he should just go for Corolla. |
| Re: Corrola Or Camry, Help Advice! by Dozieson(m): 12:15pm On Jul 24, 2021 |
Peppermintflav:Sure corrola is better if you don't have a need for space |
| Re: Corrola Or Camry, Help Advice! by mine85(op): 3:18pm On Jul 25, 2021 |
Peppermintflav:Going for 9ja used. |

Dozieson:I am over 6 feet, will that corolla 2000 model size my legs. Secondly, can it run effectively from east to delta, Lagos? |

mine85:How often do you travel? Are you a family man? |
| Re: Corrola Or Camry, Help Advice! by mine85(op): 9:44pm On Jul 26, 2021 |
Dozieson:A family man with currently 2 kids, don't travel like that, once awhile... |
| Re: Corrola Or Camry, Help Advice! by Dozieson(m): 10:42pm On Jul 26, 2021 |
mine85:Then corrola is okay for you |
| Re: Corrola Or Camry, Help Advice! by larrypourl(m): 5:53pm On Jul 27, 2021 |
Peppermintflav:I know one that hasn't changed his for once since he got the car toks. The ride is 10 years with him now. |
| Re: Corrola Or Camry, Help Advice! by larrypourl(m): 5:56pm On Jul 27, 2021 |
Both cars are okay like they said above but watch out for Corolla 1998-2002 model. Inspect thoroughly because that engine is notorious for shortening oil and even with that, it's a good ride you'd enjoy. |

mine85:That's the same thing they tell me about Honda but my spirit is with Honda Civic 06-09. Let me put my house in order first before I make up my mind |
| Re: Corrola Or Camry, Help Advice! by Nobody: 8:21pm On Jul 28, 2021 |
Peppermintflav:That is incorrect, I used dat particular Camry in the past. I only changed timing belt once. I had d car for almost 3 years....but to be honest, I change shocks like no tommorrow ![]() |
